After endless speculation as to who will replace loudmouth Rosie O'Donnell, it looks like the new host of 'The View' is going to be Whoopi Goldberg.
"As far as everyone at ABC is concerned, she has the job. They have been meeting with Kathy Griffin, Rosanne Barr, Ricki Lake and Gayle King. While Kathy was a strong contender, Whoopi has won everyone over. Everyone is acting like Whoopi already has the gig," a show insider tells Star magazine.
"Whoopi has a radio show, she lives in NYC and she is an institution there. She also is liberal and outspoken but not crazy like Rosie was. She will be a perfect fit as far as the ladies on The View are concerned.
"Nothing has been officially announced," says the insider. "But it is 99 percent Whoopi at this point. They will have a few guest hosts throughout the summer but the executives and producers at The View are set on Ms. Goldberg to start in the fall and the hosts like the idea too."
What do you guys think? You think she'd be a good addition to the show?
